A 9 year old didn't have to die because of Right -wing hatred, but she did.
A Domestic terrorist gunned down a 9 year old girl who got in the way of his target, a DEMOCRATIC Congresswoman. Keep that in perspective, a 9 year old died because of the insanity that is Right-wing politics, win at all costs, flame the hatred, defame the Left, Gays, Blacks, Browns, non-Christians, win at all costs. Lie and hate, win at all costs.

Christina-Taylor Green was collateral damage in their war on America. She was in the THIRD GRADE. Think about that. Third grade. She's the Granddaughter of former baseball pitcher Dallas Green. She played baseball on an otherwise all-boys team, danced ballet, sang in the church choir, was a gymnast and wanted to be a cheerleader. And she got in the way of hate. Hate that is out of control, hate perpetuated by a propaganda machine that will try their very best to spin this as if it's an isolated incident.


If nothing more, remember that on January 8 2011, hate killed a beautiful little girl.


Goodnight.

5. whose ramblings indicated he was infected with right wing hate speech
gold standard - even the talk of grammar comes from an extremist right winger. obessing about the constitutionality of the current govt...

she was killed by someone in a state whose teabagger candidate and opponent to Giffords used HER image as TARGET PRACTICE to fund raise.

this girl was killed by someone in a state that has no reasonable gun control laws because of right wing politics.

she was killed by someone in a state that has been over run with hate speech against people of Latino and American Indian heritage and against liberals in general - at the state and national level.

the context of the killing matters. this girl was not shot at a school. she was shot at a political event. for you to try to pretend there is no correlation between her murder and the political climate in this nation is not only excreable, it is demonstrably false.

yet you continue to pretend that right wing extremism is in no way connected to this current assassination attempt - in which this child was an innocent bystander who was also murdered.

9. "Many others"? Despite what the m$m wants you to believe, shooting sprees aren't a common occurrence
Edited on Sun Jan-09-11 09:17 PM by blondeatlast
"Many others" might be car accident or smoking victims--but not shooting sprees.

13. Accidents and voluntary consumption of a harmful product.
Here we have a product designed and intended to be used by one person against others.

Malice empowered as a Constitutional "right" of all things.

11. America: United on 9-11-2001 ...
... and divided on 1-8-2011.

Christina Taylor Green is the human symbol for that descent. She is the USA's Neda Agha Soltan.
